美容假体必须具有功能性和美观性。这些假体的功能可以被认为是额外的被动支持，或者是一种社会功能的工具和对患者的帮助。这种功能作用在这些假体的持续使用中已经被观察到了几年。我们回顾了2847名患者的处方、试衣和随访护理的经验。这些患者的分类是基于他们的年龄、截肢程度(有或没有功能性挤压)和截肢原因。对数据的分析证实了我们的假体装配适应症。这些美容假体的长期佩戴证实了它们作为治疗工具的用途。
Aesthetic prostheses must fulfill a functional as well as an aesthetic role. The function of these prostheses may be perceived as an additional passive support, or as an instrument of social function and an aid to the patient. This functional role has been observed in the continued use of these prostheses over several years. We reviewed our experience with prescription, fitting and follow-up care in 2847 patients. Classification of these patients was based on their age, level of amputation (with or without functional pinch) and cause of amputation. Analysis of the data ratifies our indications for prosthesis fitting. The long-term wearing of these aesthetic prostheses confirms their use as therapeutic tools.
